Birthday Cakes

The kind of birthday cakes you get in Chennai have improved tremendously. Unless you had a mother who baked wondrous cakes for you as a kid, you never saw anything very fancy. Nowadays you get all shapes and sizes and types and flavors. The nicest ones I've seen are from Taj Coromandel and Park Hotel (the pastry chefs at Park are Mr. Krishnakumar and Mr. Santosh - both incredibly talented).
